"Grant thou unto me a path whereon I may pass in peace, for I am just and true; I have not spoken lies wittingly, nor have I done aught with deceit.
She had moreover a great fondness for intervals of solitude, which since her arrival in England had been but meagrely met. It was a luxury she could always command at home and she had wittingly missed it.

But Jacob, without giving his reason, persisted.
Do you imagine I would stoop to defend my conduct to you to one who is, either wittingly or unwittingly, hand in glove with Pierre Lapierre?" The unconcealed scorn of the man's words stung Chloe to the quick. "Pierre Lapierre is a man!" she cried with flashing eyes. "He is neither afraid nor ashamed to declare his principles.
and I prefer his sombre "Red Fisherman," the idea of which is borrowed, wittingly or unwittingly, from Lucian. Thackeray, too careless in his measures, yet comes nearer Prior in breadth of humour and in unaffected tenderness.
